I need to use up some puff pastry, but we're doing a healthy eating week to lose some fat before winter and we put it all back on again!

Any healthy puff pastry ideas around?

xxxxxxxxxx

do what i did...apple strudel..link a few posts above.

you wont get far on healthy eating using puff pastry since the pastry is already a calorific food.

how about just cutting it up into small portions , freezing it then taking out what you need to put on a main course meal. that way its more of a taster than a huge portion of pastry.

you could also just put the whole thing in the freezer and take it out at christmas to make a mincemeat strudel for over the xmas period

I am relatively new to old style, and very proudly purchased some jus rol fridge puff pastry when I was last at Tescos. It goes out of date today :eek: My OH is working this evening so it would be nice to have something to make to keep myself occupied anyway.
Does anyone have any good recipes/ideas of how to use them up? Can they be used sweet and savoury?? I have some fruit and veg going so wouldn't mind either really.

Thanks in advance!!!!

Wish I had some puff pastry. I definitely make the tuna and egg pie. I'm starving

Thanks so much. Of course I have spotted Gordon's beef wellington straight away yum yum can you imagine, not very money saving though, i can't remember the last time i tasted the dizzying heights of beef!
